جامعة وارويك (المملكة المتحدة)
Online & New Capital Campus
An accelerated undergraduate dual-degree curriculum in software engineering, distributed cloud systems, cybersecurity, and applied machine learning. Students earn 2 independent accredited diplomas with a 65% / 35% international credit split. BSc Computer Science & Cloud Architecture (Dual Award) is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 36 months, and the credit total is 120. Students move from Systems and interfaces through Systems and interfaces; Building and testing; Running the system; Technical project; Systems and interfaces (BSC-D202), and finish on Systems and interfaces (BSC-D202). Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students specify a small system, show how it was tested, and state how it fails. Reading is a specification, a test note, and an incident or post-mortem. The artefact a marker expects is a specification or reviewed component with tests and a trade-off note. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Two official Bachelor of Science degree certificates upon graduation Curriculum aligned with British QAA standards and global tech competencies Direct fast-track admission to Dual Master's degree programs Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.

| BSC-D101 | Systems and interfaces Systems and interfaces (BSC-D101) is a 20-credit course on BSc Computer Science & Cloud Architecture (Dual Award), with 200 notional learning hours. By the end, students can specify a small system, show how it was tested, and state how it fails, using Systems and interfaces as the working context rather than a generic management example. The course is taught in three movements. First, students establish the terms and the decision the course is about. Second, they apply the method to a case, dataset, text, or design and compare it with a weaker alternative. Third, they revise the work after feedback and state what the conclusion cannot support. Preparation uses a specification, a test note, and an incident or post-mortem. Seminar time is for the decision, not for reading the materials aloud. Assessment is a specification or reviewed component with tests and a trade-off note. A pass requires a clear method, evidence a marker can check, and an explicit limit. Credit is not awarded for summary alone.

Modules are assessed through a published mix of coursework, applied projects, and examinations. Exam windows are announced in advance so students in other time zones are not forced into overnight sittings. Alternative arrangements are available where documented.
The published duration is 36 months. Teaching language: Arabic / English. Actual time-to-complete depends on mode and any recognised prior learning.
You may study this award fully online from your country, or — where published — on campus at IUC. Online study does not require a student visa. Campus study may.
Degree tuition for this award is published as £0 / tuition-free on the online pathway. Examination or administrative fees may apply at checkout — never an annual tuition invoice. Check the Fees page for any extras.
Requirements are grouped on this page (academic, English, documents). Equivalent qualifications are considered. English may be waived after prior English-medium study.
Assessment is typically a mix of coursework, projects, and examinations. Doctoral awards include a thesis or dissertation and an oral examination. Details sit in the programme specification and module outlines.
Recognition of the award for local employment, professional licence, or ministry attestation is decided by your employer or regulator. Imperial University in Cairo publishes verification pages for certificates. We do not claim automatic equivalence in every country.
